members of Our Savior are asked to bring their Nativity Scenes to share with others
this Advent season. We will display the
crèches along the back windows of the church sanctuary. We hope to see many different cultures and
countries represented from around the world.
No nativity scene will be turned away.
If it has special meaning for you, it will be wonderful to share. Set-up will be on Monday, November 28, from
Copies of our school newsletter, The Mane Events, are available in the
back of the sanctuary on the triangular shelf.

beneficial than the escrip rebate which is between 1%

Safeway gift card are not eligible for accumulation for any other charitable
giving (escrip), rewards, rebate, airline miles, or
